No it wasn't Artifical Intelligence as it's spelling is far more accurate. Didn't want to explain in detail your team selection, thus used bullet points. The team selection suffers from players that compete for the similar position, so technically your duplicating their role. Whilst Yates, Dominquez, and Sangare have played together, their different conflicting styles and techniques could be counter productive, creating confusion or slowing the pace of play. Sangare style is synonymous of a patient, build up play, whilst Yates and Dominquez prefer a faster, direct play. Neither compliment each other, and this is why the team struggle to create or break organised defences. The other aspect is Width. Yes Dominquez has occasionally played a wider role, but normally like Yates and Sangare are positioned more centrally narrowing the field of play.Was that AI?It was wasn’t it…
- Dom has played wide for us plenty of times. Otherwise only difference in wide players vs Saturday is CHO (who played more centrally anyway vs MU)
- Speed - are MGW, Jesus and Ando much faster than McAtee, Kali and Sangare? Marginal difference there. Unless again you mean CHO.
- Duplication of roles - I just don’t think that point made much sense.
- Firepower - we don’t score much anyway, let’s see if these guys can do any better against lower level opposition

I'd be tempted to start strong- get early goals 
and then make subs sharpish. But that's what I always think

Has got to be Kali's time, no? Why buy the guy and then have him play 4 mins at the end of each match? There is no way that is fair to the lad, unless he has been absolute garbage in training or something

To all traveling fans, with or without tickets, have a fantastic time, enjoy the local brews, food followed by watching Forest give a great display winning 0-3 which will more than likely give you good reason to celebrate 
Very jealous of you all.

Interesting example to use! Quite liked the trip to Ashton Gate and scoring two goals in added on time to win a game wasn't bad either.
On the basis that; Zinchenko, Bakwa, Luiz, Wood are all out.
I'd go for something like this, not whole sale changes but enough and still keeps a strong eleven.
Hopefully get the lead then can bring on Sinclair for one of the wingers.
Paramount that we start using the squad, or we'll struggle against Leeds.

Urgh - not the dreaded 4 centre-backs back line.

A key game though in our promotion season........Lyle Taylor scoring twice in injury time......

Looking after players like Anderson, MGW, Williams & Murillo is vital if we want to get out of the relegation zone - I wouldn't play any of these 4.

A big no to Morato at LB- no point in having bad experiences if one isn't going to learn from them!

He also won't be left 1 v 1 constantly against one of the best and quickest dribblers around. He was hung out to dry in that game.
Morato was playing left back in the Champions League the year before he joined us

I’ve done a road trip up from Podgorica in Montenegro. Got to Graz last night after stopping off at Plitvice National Park in Croatia yesterday. This flag is from the West Ham win just after promotion (sorry Forza you can have it back if you want!)
Never mind, keeps saying the photo is too big to attach, it’s just a normal pic off my iPhone.
